Hopefully Onana is just this weekend's Pau
-
Don't care too much about today but we could really do with Onana against the Forest thugs.
-
Ok, who was it that commented earlier in the week that Onana was putting a good run of games together?
-
Hopefully Onana is just this weekend's Pau
Injured according to Townley
-
We rested Mings and Pau totally out the squad in the last couple of league games so I suspect Onana is the same this week.
-
Bogarde instead of Luiz is an interesting call
-
Yes was in the training pics with some light strapping on, Id say he’ll start on Thursday
-
I suspect we won't be taking the option on Luiz and he was this seasons Diasasi, we had a need for a midfield body and now we don't.
-
Better to rest Onana if he has any slight knock. He has played a lot and would have had a couple of rests if Kamara had been avaialble.
4 changes from last and on the surface no less strong.
-
Ross B is unlucky to be on the bench.
-
For some reason I expected a weaker team than this. Happy with the line up, let’s seal Champion League!
-
BBC text states Bogarde and no Onana, then shows Onana in the actual starting 11 picture.

-
Poor Dougie.
-
What’s wrong with Onana then?
-
Bogarde is the first obvious Onana replacement, not Luiz.
-
I think it's great that Unai, the squad and most supporters feel comfortable with Bogarde starting as Onana is injured / tactically rested.
Come on Villa boys. Win today does a lot of psychological damage to the teams below us and puts us 3rd till Monday at least.
-
What’s wrong with Onana then?
I remember him going down towards the end of the Sunderland match but he played on afterwards. So hopefully just a knock.
-
Onana out is a big blow.
Play well and win Villa.
-
After last week's performance Sancho doesn't even deserve a place on the bench.
-
What’s wrong with Onana then?
I remember him going down towards the end of the Sunderland match but he played on afterwards. So hopefully just a knock.
Fingers crossed. Would be very annoying to lose him for the semi final.
-
No Ross? Thought he was a first choice for league games now. Bogarde is scared of doing anything attacking.
-
I’m nervous about this with Bogarde in if I’m honest.
-
No Bogarde performance this season is giving me cause for concern. Actually think he deserves game time.
-
No Ross? Thought he was a first choice for league games now. Bogarde is scared of doing anything attacking.
So is Martinez. Luckily, that isn't his job, either.
-
On Amadou Onana's absence: "He was not feeling good yesterday. He had some small pain. We have enough players to play, we are here being consistent. We are not thinking when we do not have some players. We have 25 players and every player must feel comfortable to play in the structure that we have."
-
No Ross? Thought he was a first choice for league games now. Bogarde is scared of doing anything attacking.
So is Martinez. Luckily, that isn't his job, either.
Barkley can do what Bogarde does and play a bit too.
-
Bogarde is decent enough.
-
Doubts over Bogarde have probably come due to his recent shows at right back.
Hopefully he'll be fine in his more favoured role.
-
Harry gives us a corner
-
Oliver is a twat
-
Giving the ball away again.
-
Rogers again Rogers again again again. This is a jinx to make him produce some magic.
-
No Ross? Thought he was a first choice for league games now. Bogarde is scared of doing anything attacking.
So is Martinez. Luckily, that isn't his job, either.
Barkley can do what Bogarde does and play a bit too.
With Onana alongside him, maybe. Onana isn’t avaliable, though. That's why Bogarde has been chosen ahead of Barkley.
-
Has the game started?
-
couple of craap free kicks from youri
-
How is that not a penalty on Cash?
-
Sloppy passing. Come on Villa these let you play so get in your groove
-
Technically that's definitely a foul. You're not getting it though.
-
How is that not a penalty on Cash?
He's not wearing a red shirt
-
20 mins in and no touches in their area?...
Sounds very fraggy this one. Needs someone to come up with a moment...
-
Technically that's definitely a foul. You're not getting it though.
I can think of at least one red team who would have done.
-
How is that not a penalty on Cash?
Because he's got his arm wrapped around Jimenez's back.
-
Gonna get fuck all from Michael Oliver today.
Wrestling players to the ground in the box?
Nothing to be seen!
-
‘Harry Wilson he’s claret n blue’ from the fans.
-
How is that not a penalty on Cash?
Because he's got his arm wrapped around Jimenez's back.
Exactly definite penalty to us.
-
‘Harry Wilson he’s claret n blue’ from the fans.
Won't be signing for us then, based on the kit leaks.
-
Playing okay without really threatening.
-
That Anderson is a dirty fucker
-
What a waste of electricity those floodlights are.
-
Torres ffs
-
some poor stuff at times
-
We are a little lacklustre
-
A typical got nothing to play for end of season fixture so far.
-
Very sluggish at getting the ball through midfield here.
-
Anderson holding Watkins on every turn and getting nothing.
-
Anderson holding Watkins on every turn and getting nothing.
How is it not a foul?
-
Because it’s Oliver
-
I'm not liking this.
-
Watkins is getting no protection here at all
-
Ffs rogers
-
More like Kenny rogers
-
Forgot Rogers was playing
Struggling to put 3 passes together at the moment
-
not much better than that awful palace spammers game on Monday.
-
Good play and combination from Mcguinn, Ollie but a poor shot from from Morgan. Very passive at times today. I worry as this Fulham team are capable of a moment.
-
not much better than that awful palace spammers game on Monday.
*shudders*
-
Buendia not in the game at all
-
This is pretty weak.
-
Resting Pau hasnt done much good.
-
Fulham will tire eventually. They're doing what a lot of teams try against us, pressing high and closing down every one of our players instantly.
You can't do that for ninety minutes. At some point you have to take a breather and let the opposition's defence keep it for a bit.
-
Pau’s distribution surprisingly poor so far
-
I think this has step up second half written all over.
-
Normal Villa first half.
-
Buendia not in the game at all
not the only one
-
I think this has step up second half written all over.
Yeah,it's all a plan
-
Nearly a great goal.
-
Close from Morgan
-
thought that was in.
-
Fuck, thought that was in!
-
The new stand has a swimming pool on top apparently.
-
Great run Rogers-Should have scored
-
Great effort. Tuchel will have liked that
-
that would of been goal of the month for sure
-
Very nearly brilliant from Rogers. Great work from SJM before that. That’s more like it, sharper passing get them turned.
-
Nearly a great goal.
And again.
-
close again ollie
-
Fcuk me close from Ollie
-
Unlucky for Ollie, terrific work there.
-
Great effort
-
Great play from Ollie.
-
Right come on Villa.
-
another great chance.
-
What a great move and shot by Ollie
-
This is better
-
This is the Wilson goal coming up.
-
That was shite to lose Jimenez like that.
-
Tuchel has just said Genau das will ich von Ollie sehen.
-
why does buendia foul there
-
Stupid free kick to give away Buendia.
-
Bogarde seems lost
-
We need to nail one of these chances
-
Why are the floodlights on?
-
Bogarde seems lost
Of all the grounds in all the world he’s at Stamford Bridge
-
shame about the pass by rogers then
-
Bogarde seems lost
Of all the grounds in all the world he’s at Stamford Bridge
Very good!
-
Buendia has tried to cripple Wilson to stop him taking his place next season
-
buendia saying you aint coming Villa HArry
-
Why is the commentator saying Bogart?
-
Why is the commentator saying Bogart?
no Idea Humprey
-
1-0 to them
-
pathetic
-
Bullcrap
-
Been asking for that.
-
Fuck.
-
Well that was coming.
-
Oh FFS. The team that can't score, of course it's us they score against
-
We deserve that,we a have been so lethargic
-
That's been coming.
-
Shite
-
Another guy who only turns up against us once every five seasons.
-
shocking .. flat as fcuk but should be 1 up and the defence again rubbish and why we keep losing the ball ffs
-
Bogarde loses his man.
-
Got sucked in there.
-
Just before HT. Again.
-
Fucks sake. How long since they last scored?
-
Buendia is the weak link
-
Martinez should be holding that pretty weak header.
-
It was a great save but the reaction on the follow up was shite.
-
That's been coming.
No it hasn’t
-
If Martinez has a weakness it's when he makes a save he puts it right back in the danger zone.
-
We are at the races today. I’d take a draw now.
-
Weak from Bogarde
-
The 35 minutes I watched before losing my stream seemed to be low energy, low intensity and low quality.
-
Sessignon only 25? I swear he's played for Fulham for about 20 years
-
That's been coming.
No it hasn’t
Indeed. First onside chance they had.
-
get barkley on
-
Need much more intensity in the second half.
-
Not scored in four of five games? You need doctor Villa.
-
That's been coming.
No it hasn’t
Yes it has we've been lethargic most of that half.
-
Need to make a few changes at break. Midfield have been dreadful. Would get Maatsen on for Digne too.
-
Disappointingly they look like they have more riding on this than we do.
-
Does anyone have a ‘small river’ they could share please. Mine crapped out after 35 mins.
-
that goal is on Martinez - it was straight at him and he pushed it right into the danger zone - poor
-
Sessignon only 25? I swear he's played for Fulham for about 20 years
He was the first player in the PL whose birth year began with 2
-
McGinns quietest game for a while
-
That's been coming.
No it hasn’t
Yes it has we've been lethargic most of that half.
We may have been that but that goal was not coming
-
As long as Brentford don't win, not too much damage done. But very annoying nonetheless to lose down here. They have their tactics right, man for man in midfield.
-
Ross on for Bogarde.
-
It was a great save but the reaction on the follow up was shite.
The reaction was poor for the loose ball but it wasn’t a great save, it was routine which he completely fucked up.
-
Always prefer Buendia from the bench, not good enough to start. Drop off from Onana to Bogarde also noticeable. Like others will be happy to draw this.
-
That's been coming.
No it hasn’t
Indeed. First onside chance they had.
They've had 8 chances 5 on target we've had 5 and 1 on target.
-
Bogarde has been absolutely miles off it. Torres not far behind. I’d be hooking Bogarde for Barkley at half time and contemplate Buendia for Luiz
-
We’re in big trouble here, other than those couple of bigs of play from Rogers and Watkins we’ve looked really flat. I know it’s harsh but Bogarde is just noticeably lower level. We need a big second half here.
-
As long as Brentford don't win, not too much damage done. But very annoying nonetheless to lose down here. They have their tactics right, man for man in midfield.
We haven’t lost yet?!?
-
Good thinking lads - saving every last bit of energy you have for Thursday.
-
Does any other sport bring you down to earth with a bang quite like football does
-
How did they get a speculative cross in from so far out?
Who got theheader/shot that Emi saved?
Who wasn't tracking Sessegnon?
We shouldn't put the blame on Konsa.
-
rogers lost it 8 times out of 15
-
Fulham worked their socks off all half.
Gave us absolutely no time on the ball, and so we struggled in possession. Only Watkins did OK. Buendia tends to wilt when marked closely, and Bogarde is having no impact physically.
But around the 65 minute mark I reckon the tide will start to swing in our favour.
-
Scruffy showing, the two chances after half an hour the best bit. McGinn subdued for half an hour, need to get him into the game more, the midfield is currently dysfunctional. Missing Onana.
Still in it mind.
-
Need to make a few changes at break. Midfield have been dreadful. Would get Maatsen on for Digne too.
We never do though, do we? Unai I guess prefers rockets where needed at half time and if the message still hasn't landed by the hour then the subs come on
-
Need a change in impetus at half time. Unai won’t do it, but I’d take Bogarde off - he’s not offering enough defensive protection to account for the lack of quality he brings on the ball.
-
We've played like a team with a big match coming up next. But the only difference is they scored from their clear chance & we didn't.
-
Put in a first half like that Thursday and we will be out of it.
-
we're creating nothing
the only two real efforts were Rogers and Watkins, and they made those themselves.
Someone needs to control midfield.
-
Feels like this might be worth a green win-draw saver bet
-
Our passing has been horrible (Pau unusually the worst culprit). Time and time again Martinez has the ball and we end up trapped in our defensive right corner. When that starts to happen it usually means we’re going to be shit.
-
We’re in big trouble here, other than those couple of bigs of play from Rogers and Watkins we’ve looked really flat. I know it’s harsh but Bogarde is just noticeably lower level. We need a big second half here.
The problem with Bogarde, and I know people defend him (he is only a kid), but what does he actually do and what is he good at?
-
I think we’ve given the ball away more times in tha half than any other game I can remember in recent years. Some of that is undoubtedly because Fulham are full of energy in how they’re pressing. They’ve also had a good run of the ball with some fortunate ricochets.
We need way more umpf.
-
that goal is on Martinez - it was straight at him and he pushed it right into the danger zone - poor
Header from a few yards away, very harsh. Bogarde lost his man and at fault for me. Great cross.
-

He’s like the archetypal utility player. No specialism. I don’t rate him
-
Need to make a few changes at break. Midfield have been dreadful.
Missing Onana.
-
Yet another of those occasions where we have the chance to lay down a marker, put a teeny tiny bit of pressure on Man U and show the watching world that we mean business.
And we decide to not bloody bother.
-
Need to make a few changes at break. Midfield have been dreadful.
Missing Onana.
Agreed. I don’t see what Emery sees in Bogarde. I’d have much preferred Doug in there today. More careful and creative with the ball
-
No Bogarde performance this season is giving me cause for concern.
This one is.
-
Bogarde is well of the pace and Buendia only plays well against tiring sides. How many times do we pass to cash in defence and we tie ourselves in knots, cost us a goal last week. McGinn has been quiet so far and Tielemans is struggling with the pace. Hope to see better second half.
-
Not concerned just yet. We're often a bit flat in first halfs.
-
Barkley needs to come on here, maybe on the hour and make things happen. I like Bogarde a lot but he doesn’t offer much going forward…Barkley on, push Buendia forward a bit and go at them.
-
Need to make a few changes at break. Midfield have been dreadful. Would get Maatsen on for Digne too.
Me too.
Not convinced about Digne taking corners from right without a short option, either. It clearly signals an in-swinger into the box, which they have dealt with.
-
that goal is on Martinez - it was straight at him and he pushed it right into the danger zone - poor
Header from a few yards away, very harsh. Bogarde lost his man and at fault for me. Great cross.
Bogarde had three players attacking his side and no one helping to cover. At the start of the move Sessegnon was level with McGinn who didn't respond when he sprinted forward.
-
Controlled walking football with no real danger from Fulham. We then create two glorious chances that both Watkins and Rogers should have buried. Concede out of nothing. Buendia for me needs to come off. Barkley on.
-
We need to stop this continuing playing out from the back. the only time at the end of the half, when Emi did go long resulted in us getting a corner, which resulted in us putting Fulham under pressure in their own half, for the longest time so far in the 45 minutes.
-
I think I'd reluctantly be looking to move Onana on in the summer. It's a shame because he's a great player, but if he's injured he's no use whatsoever.
And sadly, he's far too fragile, especially considering he plays in such a physically-demanding position.
-
Always going to be a tough one to call but the way Villa are playing its like we are focusing to much on Forest, win this and we are pretty much set for the CL anyway.
C'mon Villa, would love to see Ollie continue his goal scoring run today, sort this out Villa.
-
I like Bogarde but If brighton really want him for £25 mill its a no brainer to sell.
-

Watkins’ chance was a difficult one that he created himself. Rogers was a much easier one, which he created himself.
That’s all we appear to have at the moment.
-
The BBC match momentum stats look accurate, to me at least.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/live/clyd52nj0det (https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/live/clyd52nj0det)
-
As it stands it will be one away league win in 2026.
-

It's bonkers how often I see this. I mean, this is our style now, and has contributed to our best era since the 90s if not the early 80s. We aren't going to become a long-ball team!
-
Only our front two are performing. I'd be thinking McGinn in with Luiz in midfield. Rogers left, Tielemans 10 and one of the gruesome twosome on the right.
-
I'm going for an amazing second half for Villa, we win 3-1
-
Just have to hope Brighton and Bournemouth slip up.
-
Get Barkley on ffs.
Martínez and his Hollywood parries...
-
Yet another of those occasions where we have the chance to lay down a marker, put a teeny tiny bit of pressure on Man U and show the watching world that we mean business.
And we decide to not bloody bother.
This for me. It’s like every time we had the chance to go top. Always blew it. I can’t work out why.
-

I think he's got a point in this instance. Horses for courses init. We've humped a few teams (e.g. Newcastle) by getting Emi to go more direct. It often works against sides that try to press our whole defence at once.
-
that header by pau !!
-
Their press is outstanding today.
-
that header by pau !!
Appalling, Digne dreadful again too. Emery had to make changes at break
-
buendia ffs
-
buendia ffs
Not suited to this type of game. He needs more room.

Agreed. Some in game management needed to respond to their pressure
-
buendia ffs
Just not good enough
-
Get Lindelof on, Torres has been embarrassing
-
Torres is having a solid 3/10 performance so far.
-
Our passing has been horrible (Pau unusually the worst culprit). Time and time again Martinez has the ball and we end up trapped in our defensive right corner. When that starts to happen it usually means we’re going to be shit.
Torres looks like he desperately needs a shit, Konsa no better. The defence just looks weak and we're toothless up front. Are we always crap everytime Tuchel turns up?
Need to move McGinn in more centrally, he's wasted out on the right. Youri slept most of that half. Improved in the last 10 minutes but another not at it when we need him most.
-
buendia ffs
Not suited to this type of game. He needs more room.
I never like him starting.
-
oh well we got Bailey I suppose.
-
104 Villa appearances for Pau, this was his 5th booking which is a crazy stat for a CB.
-
Wakey wakey Unai
-
Torres Bogarde and Buendia need to come off. Not sure for who
-
Shit cross Digne
-
good move awful cross
-
Next goal wins
-
Worst game I've seen Torres have so far.
-
Oliver is being a proper twat now. Giving us nothing when fouling Watkins but giving them fouls for the slightest touch
-
Our crossing needs work
-
Oliver is being a proper twat now. Giving us nothing when fouling Watkins but giving them fouls for the slightest touch
It was opposite first half
-
Oliver is a jerk
-
Torres Bogarde and Buendia need to come off. Not sure for who
Buendia improving a bit. McGinn struggling today too
-
This is crap.
-
This is pretty dull. Do our players know we need at least one goal today to get something from the game?
-
This is crap.
At least we have answers on the bench
-
I think we can safely say if this goes to 2-0 it's game over.
-
Bassey's been excellent for them.
-
This is crap.
At least we have answers on the bench
Trouble is, like you say, on the bench.
-
Bassey's been excellent for them.
He’s a player you can count on
-
Bassey's been excellent for them.
goldfinger
-
Make some subs, FFS.
-
We struggle today as they’ve really pressed us. Forest will be watching this and be all over us on Thursday.
That ball from Cash sums up our day so far.
-
our passing and final ball is terrible.
-
Jesus ,our passing
-
This feels like a game where we’re not going to score.
-
Bassey's been excellent for them.
He’s a player you can count on
If we signed him he would be a diamond forever
-
Who's side is Cash on?
-
Creating our own problems again
-
I think Id bring 5 on .
-
What's happened to our passing?
-
Bassey's been excellent for them.
Shirley not?
-
Buendia has concrete boots on today.
-
ffs Ollie
-
This might be one for a Watkins-Tammy double act, do something Fulham don't expect
-
And that's a bad miss
-
Bassey's been excellent for them.
Shirley not?
They havent needed much from their Welsh Wizzard eithet
-
Superb first touch from Ollie
-
Ah Ollie
-
I don't see us breaking them down as the game drags and they get compact.
-
We're lulling Forest into a false sense of security.
-
I don't see us breaking them down as the game drags and they get compact.
We just did
-
Spaces starting to appear now, though. Fulham are playing ten yards deeper.
-
good idea PAu
-
Lob Sancho on
-
Premier league is the priority today. This is where we need to secure our place.
It seems like we are doing ourselves no bloody favours
-
This is in no way an excuse, but is the ball extra bouncy?
-
I'd take a point now.
-
This is in no way an excuse, but is the ball extra bouncy?
It’s not a Wembley trophy that’s the issue
-
You’ve got to better in front of Tuchel Ollie
-
Pace and quality needed. Get on Maatsen, Luiz and Barkley.
-
crossing been poor from Luca, think Id get some pace with Maatsen, and barkley now
-
No pace is a real problem for us. We’ve no one who can consistently beat an opposition player.
Think Doku at City
-
I like Bogarde,but I'd hook him
-
Emery left subs too late v Forest and repeating the dose here.
-
been 2 if he dont make changes
-
2-0 but disallowed. Jeepers
-
Got away with that. Arsenal have scored fifteen of them this season.
-
We’re not scoring here, I think it’ll be 2-0.
-
Well done ref good spot
-
They’re obviously thinking about Thursday
-
That's lucky.
-
Be nice if the commentator watched the officials before he orgasmed
-
Ref on our side there, if TalkShite's commentary is anything to go by...
-
come on subs please.
-
Leaving changes too late.
-
Got away with that. Arsenal have scored fifteen of them this season.
Yeah, if he gives it then it's not being overturned
-
I am a fan of Bogarde..and I would consider he's playing in his natural, preferred position but he's looked out of his depth and not aware of the runs off and around him today...Tielemans in there...Barkley on....Maatsen too
-
Fuck off Torres
-
We’re not scoring here, I think it’ll be 2-0.
Sadly it's looking more likely than 1-1 or 1-2. We're still in bed it seems.
-
We look like the team on the beach.
-
Be more proactive Unai, it’s evidently not working.
-
Fuck off Torres
Fuck off bronte.
-
Ref on our side there, if TalkShite's commentary is anything to go by...
Was a very obvious foul by their player on Emi. Good decision by ref
-
Be nice if the commentator watched the officials before he orgasmed
They've not been exactly impartial today have they.
-
Please make some changes Unai
-
Bore them to death Villa then hit them with the one, two.
-
barkley cant play on Thursday
-
I'm quite puzzled by us today
-
Bailey, Luiz, Sancho and Barkley coming
-
Why are these numbnuts booing Martinez?
-
4 changes
-
4 changes incoming
-
Sancho and Bailey. Madness.
-
Why are these numbnuts booing Martinez?
Arsenal?
-
Not scoring against Fulham is really poor.
-
Sancho. Bailey. Luiz and Barkley coming on.
-
well 3 changes If it includes Bailey
-
I'm quite puzzled by us today
Can’t watch but I’m following the game.
There is no puzzlement. We put these kind of performances in far too often
-
Sancho and Bailey. Madness.
Agreed. One maybe, but both?
-
Buendia has been snuffed out all game. I'd bring on Ross Barkley.
FFS I'm never comfortable with the disruption 4 subs at once brings
-
Going for Europa route to CL then…..
-
Emery getting schooled today.
-
Can we stop just walking right into Fulham players when we have the ball?
-
The time wasting is outrageous.
-
It feels like Fulham have won every challenge.
-
Rodney marsh coming on for rhem
-
Buendia, SJM, Bogey and Tilly off.
-
Bogarde got away with one there
-
another 3 mins gone with subs waiting
-
Fulham have been excellent and worked insanely hard.
-
Bogarde is a big drop off from Onana
-
Ffs
-
Rodney marsh coming on for rhem
What? The Aussie wicket keeper?
-
should have done this HT and I think Tammy can always grab you a goal so Id have had him on.
-
Bailey, Barkley, Doug & Sancho come on. About time!
-
another 3 mins gone with subs waiting
20 mins wasted by Emery
-
Tielemans, McGinn both poor today by their standards.

Tielemans, McGinn both poor today by their standards.
That has not been the biggest problem, Pau has been weak and poor passing, Bogarde looked totally out of his depth, Buendia back to his wasteful self.
Generally poor all round.

Don't think Tielemans has been all that since coming back from injury. McGinn was pulling a train today.
-
I think those changes are more with Thursday in mind than today.
-
Sancho and Bailey is really taking the piss
-
Rogers has been pretty anonymous again today.
-
Very poor today
-
Be nice if we tested their keeper
-
Come on boys
-
This has very much been a Villa-when-something-is-at-stake performance. Too timid, too passive.
-
To be fair Fulham have worked their socks off to stifle us but can they see it through?
-
ffs shoot
-
Tammy on for Ollie
-
Cmon Tammy, your time to shine.
-
Rogers has been pretty anonymous again today.
Tuchel there too.
-
Why the extra touch Luiz?
-
Come on Tammy. Another late goal, pleaae!
-
Bloody hell Doug!
-

Leno has made a proper save has he?
-
Fucking hell Dougie just hit the bloody ball first time
-
Not a good look Watkins.
-
Nobody's really been on it today. Feels like we've been reluctant to try and match them physically.
-
They’ve had every fucking bounce of this ball today. So frustrating.
-
A very slow, undynamic performance that results in another 1 shot on target match.
-
FFS Tammy
-
Fcuking hell
-
there was the chance
-
Great play shite finish has been a theme, today.
-
Rogers having one of those games. Just keeps giving the ball away.
-
You bring players on too late that’s what happens
-
Looks like one of those games where mentally we’ve been very unprepared. It’s disappointing given the massive opportunity in front of us.
-
Rogers having one of those games. Just keeps giving the ball away.
Yet another one of those games
-
Fuck sake. This is torturous.
-
Would have been some goal. Cmon Tammy, next one
-
Trying to play the perfect goal.
-
Got to score, done the hard bit
-
Rogers gives the ball away so much.
-
I said to my lad I still think we will get an easy chance but Im not convinced we will score it today and there was Tammy.
